I was feeling so inadequate that I hadn’t read or seen George Orwell’s 1984. I feel so much better now. Thank you.

Huh.
The only titles there that I have *not* seen or read are:
12. K-PAX
34. Lifeforce(Space Vampires)
39. Creator
48. Body Snatchers
K-Pax, I keep seeing Spacey in American Beauty: Mood killer. Lifeforce, I am trying to get a hold of to see Patrick Stewart in a bad, bad film. The others don’t ring bells, I will need to scour my movie review sites now…

From Beyond is one you want me to download. I’ll get to it eventually!

Hmm. Are we sure? The one I am thinking is Jeffrey Combs in a bad adaptation of a Lovecraft story, not the ghostly teens in search of the newly deceased girlfriend. Though coming to think of it, I want both…

LOL @ Kevin Spacey in American Beauty mood killer.
Andres you may as well watch all four (or does From Beyond make five?) of those movies that didn’t make your list. Go for a perfect score!

Ok, I have to admit, a number of these I looked at and thought “…wait, they made a movie out of that? Huh.”
